Tripping Characteristic of MCB

Based on the tripping Charcteristics MCB are available bin 'B' and 'C' Cure to Suit different types of
applications
'B' curve for protection of electroc circuits with eqipment that does not cause surge cuirrent (liughting &
socket outlet circuit) short circuit release is set to 3 - 5In
'C' curve for protection of electric circuits with equipment that cause surge current (inductive and motor
circuits) short circuit release is set to 5 - 10 In
D' Curve for protection of electric circuits which cause high in rush current when they are switched on,
typically 15 times the normal running current
(transformer heavy start motors 2 pole motors)

Duty Categery of switches

Utilization Category Typical Applications
AC20/DC20 - Connecting and disconnecting under no-load assumes all switching operators are carried out
by other applicable devices before this device is operated.
AC21/DC21 - Switching of resistive loads i/c moderate overload suitable for purely resistive type loads
device can switch 150% of its rated current under fault conditions

AC22/DC22 - switching of mixed resistive inductive loads i/c moderate over load.suitable for mixed
resistive loade load device can switch 300% of its rated current under fault conditions.

AC23/DC23 - Switching of highly inductive loads. Device complying with AC23/DC23 are provided mainly as
backup to other means of switching eg. Contacts. In the event of failure of functional devices on
AC23/DC23 type device can safely interrupt a stalled motor current where device are the only means of
controlling individual motors, they should comply with the requirements of appendix A of standard.

 In all Fabrication will be done out of 2mm thick CRCA sheet with double door and in built locking arrangement
All connections incoming and outgoing will be taken out in cabley alloy with suitable rated solid conductor
The feeder pillar will have supplied with suitable pedestal (Ms angle iron frame of MS channel base for generating in RCC and proper
gland at the bottom
The feeder pillar will have one 10 Ampos 3 pin Socket out with 10 Amp switch and one brass holder fitted in metering panel
compartment and directly fed from incoming.
The deep of feeder pillar is 40mm the bus made of hand drawn tinned copper are fitted on insulated DMC support.The size
arrangement decided by NIT Authority
The feeder pillar should be provided with termined blocks for incoming & outgoing cables from MCCB to terminated block wiring will
be done with copper conductor/ suitable cable in coming/outgoing UG cable will be terminated intermind block this will very much

AC Calculation

1 The room is 10 feet wide by 15 feet long

2 That means 10 x 15 = 150 square feet
3 Take the sqrt (150)/10
4 We get 1.247
5 Choose an AC which is 1.2 tonnes
